Tibetan beads

Chapter 173

On the day of the return trip, Li Wen sent it all the way to the ten-mile long pavilion outside the city.

"Your Majesty?" The chief guard's voice shocked him back to his senses.

Seeing that the master was out of his mind, the chief guard leaned over and reminded in a low voice: "It's time to go back."

"Oh."

The Zhou family was already saying goodbye over there. Seeing Li Wen approaching, Zhou Xuan respectfully stepped aside to give up his seat.

Li Wen smiled and nodded, but what he said was: "Young Master Yan, I have a few words to tell you."

"Huh?" Yan Ling was confused.Li Wen wants to say goodbye, shouldn't he tell Xu Ze or the Xu family sisters?Why did you find him first?
Li Wen had already walked to the other side of the long pavilion, and Yan Ling followed with a confused expression on his face.

"Li Shizi..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Wen had already raised his sleeves and bowed deeply to him.

Regardless of his status or age, Li Wen is the elder, and Yan Ling dared not accept such a big gift from him, so he hurriedly stepped aside, extremely surprised: "Li Shizi, you are..."

Li Wen stood up straight and looked at him sincerely: "Second Master Yan has a high status, and we both have our own positions, but that day in Wangjiang Tower, you had no selfishness and took risks for me. Li Wen did not have this kind of affection." Unforgettable teeth."

It turned out that it was because of this, Yan Ling smiled, and waved her hands a little embarrassedly: "Your Majesty Li, you are welcome, I didn't do that for you, but..."

"For Miss Xu San." Li Wen took the second half of his sentence.

Yanling nodded, with an expression of "it's good that you know".

Li Wen couldn't help laughing: "Second Master Yan certainly has no intention of showing favor, but I can't pretend that I don't know about it. In short, I have made a note of this favor. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely repay it."

He spoke so seriously, Yan Ling returned the gift cautiously.

I thought I had finished speaking, but when I got up together, Li Wen said again: "It is said that I should fulfill the second young master Yan. But if I miss some things, I may regret it for the rest of my life, so I'm afraid I have to first I'm sorry, Second Young Master Yan."

"what?"

Li Wen smiled, turned around and went to the convoy without explaining.

"Brother Xu." He called out loudly.

Xu Ze, who was talking to Zhou Xuan, turned around: "Li Shizi?"

Li Wendao: "I want to have a few words with Miss Xu, is that okay?"

Hearing what he said, Xu Ze was quite happy: "Go!" We're about to part, right?

Li Wen asked again: "Can you talk alone?"

Is this trying to avoid people?Xu Ze showed hesitation and looked at the carriage.

There was a noise inside, and Xu Yin jumped down: "I'll have a cup of tea over there, and call me when I leave!"

Seeing how straightforward she was, Xu Ze didn't talk too much, and waved his hand to make the coachman back away.

Li Wen walked to the window of the carriage and called out in a low voice, "Miss Xu."

Xu Sirou's voice came from inside: "What does Li Shizi want to say?"

Hearing her calm voice, Li Wen couldn't help hesitating for a moment, then thought of Yan Ling's words, gritted his teeth, and said, "I don't know when I'll see you again after I leave this time. I have something in my heart that I want to ask Xu Da Miss, if there is any offense, I hope you will not be offended."

Xu Si smiled: "Li Shizi, please tell me, I'm not surprised."

Li Wen made up his mind, and said: "This autumn banquet was originally for a blind date. I don't know how Miss Xu has an impression of me, but do you like me?"

The carriage was quiet for a while, Xu Si didn't expect him to ask such a question, and after a while, he replied with a smile: "Li Shizi has both virtue and talent, and is impeccable."

This sentence encouraged Li Wen, and he immediately asked: "If Miss Xu has no dissatisfaction with me, can you consider this marriage?"

This time it was quieter for a longer time, Li Wen stared at the curtains of the carriage, but only saw a vague shadow.

He has never been so anxious as he is now, with his heart in mid-air, waiting for the answer.

Xu Si finally spoke: "Does Li Shizi know that my father once showed me a marriage?"

Li Wen thought about it for a while: "I know, it seems to be a Sima under Xu Cishi's sect, but later..."

"Later, he had a different intention and wanted to kill my father. His plot was exposed and he died."

"so what?"

Xu Si said softly: "When my father decided on this marriage, he once asked me, and I agreed. As the eldest daughter of the Xu family, and I have no brothers in my family, my marriage is not only related to myself, but also related to the family. So, that marriage was agreed by me for the family."

Li Wen couldn't help nodding, most of the children of aristocratic families are like this.

what about now?Did she say that this has changed?

Xu Si continued: "After Fang Yi died, my marriage became my father's heart disease. He originally wanted to keep me at home, but unexpectedly he picked such a person. Although I am not soft-tempered, I am not stronger than my sister. I am afraid It’s because I can’t support the family alone. Later, my sister said, let her stay at home, and I can marry whoever I want, as long as I am happy.”

She smiled, and her voice became softer: "Li Shizi, do you understand this feeling? I am lucky to have such a family. So, for their sake, I will not just give in to myself. This time I will marry , must be a wishful gentleman."

Li Wen couldn't help looking up at the car window, his throat felt a little dry: "Miss Xu, then I..."

"You are naturally a good match." Xu Si said softly, "I know you have some affection for me. To tell you the truth, I am not completely unmoved. It's just that marriage is very important to me. Marriage must be for To be happy, just having a good impression is not enough. If you really want this marriage, you must have more affection."

So, is this a rejection?Li Wen's head was buzzing, but after careful consideration, he didn't think so.

He couldn't help reaching out to hold the car window, and blurted out: "Then let's give it a try, shall we? The relationship needs to be cultivated. I had too many things to do before, so I didn't dare to be distracted, but now I can, and I am willing to try. , I hope you can give me this chance."

In the carriage, there was a longer silence. It was so long that Li Wen thought that he was really going to be rejected, and suddenly there was a laugh, and she asked, "Then how are you going to try? I'm leaving soon. "

Li Wen smiled and said: "I write to you every day. The ancients said that there is a spiritual friendship, so it can be seen that even if we don't meet, we can cultivate feelings. What's more, we are already clear about how we look and how we talk. You should understand what the other person thinks and what they like, right?"

Xu Si also smiled: "It seems very reasonable for you to say so."

"Then let's give it a try! You don't have a sweetheart, and neither do I, and you happen to have a crush on each other. Maybe we are the right one?"

After a while, there was a voice from the carriage: "Okay."
